Reality TV legend and former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast member Lisa Rinna doesn't think that former reality TV star Spencer Pratt should be the next Los Angeles mayor, The Daily Beast reported on Tuesday.Rinna was attending the American Music Awards at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas and told Variety she has doubts about a fellow reality star taking on a government position — taking a dig at another former reality TV star turned politician — current President Donald Trump. Trump was formerly the host of NBC's reality show The Apprentice.Variety asked Rinna who she planned to vote for in the upcoming election. I don’t know yet. Not a reality star, though, Rinna said.She praised Pratt, but made it clear where she stands and how she apparently views the Trump presidency, The Beast reported.I love him, Rinna said. But we’ve already done that. We’re not going to do that again.Listen, I’m a reality person. You wouldn’t want me as mayor, really. I mean, let’s just face it, I love him. I think he’s amazing. I just think we did that, Rinna added. She suggested the next mayor for Los Angeles should have political experience.Let’s have somebody that’s already been mayor—the mayor of San Jose, or whoever, she said. Rinna also said that she believes Pratt could win and said he has power behind him, it seems.Lisa Rinna says she doesn’t want to see a reality star like Spencer Pratt as the mayor of Los Angeles:“I’m a reality person.
